Will 10-year annualized return on January 2010 be negative for most funds?

Question

What I'm implying is that the market has yet to reach the dotcom era highs, which started to "crash" January 2000. Taking this high value into account, when January 2010 rolls around, will most funds post a negative value in their "10-year annualized gains" field?

Answer 1

I think it will be at 70% of the invested funds become negative by 2010. Regardless of how well the funds and stock promoters are advertised in Financial magazines and newspapers, they are almost all scams. For instance, the fund mangers can take your invested money in advance by the term of "carried interest" for the predicted monetary growth by the collective or the individual financial institution's executive. They probably steal your invested money by all means to perform the same act as the rouge trader spent the whole bank's money for trading and lost it all.

Why the staggering inflation of almost every things nowadays? It has to do with the excess trading of stock shares, food commodities, energy and natural resources. The hedge funds growth has the intent of steering up the values of every thing which is able to make buy and sell. It pops up the monetary growth for the investors for the profits to the investors, bankers, stock brokers/fund managers or any working personnel involved in the tradings. This makes inflation goes high in everywhere in this world. Why there are many third world infants are staved to dead as foods are available for every world citizen? It is simply the greed of investors. Perhaps the mercy god or individual smart economist delivers the ideas of "how to destroy the stock market wisely" for the sake of saving the starving children in this world. As a matter of fact, there are more than 4,000 fund managers in the US is currently under prosecution for fruading the invested fund monies. Hong Kong is known as the international capital of scams in stock market and real estate transactions. They are just learned from the US scams, however; the fasicist goverment providing the loopehole for the HOng Kong crooks and let them go away free frequently. I can conclude the answer by the followings.

1) The fund mangers are getting too much commissions in transactions disregard earning or losing in each trade.

2) The world citizens are being hit hard for the inflation caused indirectly by the excess funds investments and demanded monetary growth and returns.

3) The mixed of greed, selfish, and fear of all fund investors will make the invested funds monies reduce its current values and continues to decline. Simply, the people can'f afford to live in this inflationary crazy world.

I doubt it.... most funds would not have a heavy " weighting" in the dotcom/ tech funds that fell so badly.... the rest of the market fell along with some techs , but definitely not so much as to put them " in the hole" for the last ten years. Any funds weighted in energy, materials, international, metals, commodities, etc... would bring even an overall average of all funds up.
